WARGAMES SOLDIERS & STRATEGY: #60 May 2012 Theme – Airborne in WWII: Men Descending from the Clouds Airborne Warfare – In the 1470s, an unknown Italian designer first postulated idea of a parachute as a method of descending safely from altitude. Shortly after this, Leonardo da Vinci expanded on the idea and presented his own variation; The Famous Easy Company Assault on Brecourt Manor – Since the HBO series Band of Brothers aired in 2001, almost everyone knows about the Brecourt Manor assault led by Lieutenant Dick Winters and the men of Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment on D-Day. Here's how you can turn this historical action into a gaming experience; and The Daring Mission to Rescue Mussolini Operation Oak – By the summer of 1943, Italy was on the brink of surrendering, after a series of military defeats in North Africa and Sicily. The Grand Fascist Council met on 25 July and voted to depose Mussolini, who was subsequently arrested by the newly formed Italian government. While much of the cult of 'Il Duce' had been undermined by his association with the failure of the Italian armed forces and the impact of massive food shortages, Hitler still felt that he might have a part to play in establishing a new regime in German- controlled northern Italy. $8.50 USD
